Client-Side Custom Image Cutter — Your Browser, Your Cutouts

Cut images client-side in your browser — no upload, no account, no cloud processing queue. Your file is read on-device, the selection is applied on a canvas in your tab, and you export keep-or-remove cutouts without sending pixels to a server.

Cut Client-Side — Free

No upload · No server · Browser canvas

What this tool does

  • Draw a rectangular selection by dragging on the image
  • Keep selection or remove selection with transparent PNG output
  • Drag and resize the selection with corner handles
  • Download or copy cutout output
  • Optional EXIF metadata stripping before export
  • On-device processing — images never uploaded

Custom cutting where the file already lives

Custom Cutter reads your image locally and applies keep-or-remove selection on a client-side canvas — not a cloud pipeline that ingests your file first. Drag and resize the cut area, export transparent PNG output, then download or copy. It does not include server APIs, cloud storage, batch queues, or offline PWA guarantees beyond standard browser behavior.

Why use a client-side custom image cutter?

Cloud tools route every file through a remote server before export. Pix-8 keeps cutting in the browser tab — the direct architecture when you need a client-side custom image cutter that never uploads your pixels for processing.

Browser canvas processing

Images are read via the File API and cut on a canvas in your tab — no server round-trip for pixel operations.

No upload workflow

Your file stays on your device from load to export. Pix-8 does not receive your image data.

Frequently asked questions

What does client-side custom image cutting mean?

Your image is read locally through the browser File API and cut on a canvas in your browser tab. Draw a rectangular selection, choose keep or remove, and export transparent PNG output — pixel data is not sent to Pix-8 or any third-party server for processing. Your file stays on your device throughout.

How is a client-side custom cutter different from cloud image cutters?

Cloud cutters require uploading your file before any cut runs. Pix-8 Custom Cutter processes on a client-side canvas — drag and resize the selection, choose keep or remove, then download or copy. It does not include server-side APIs, cloud storage sync, batch cutting, or account-based file retention.

How is this different from Pix-8 Cropper client-side cropping?

Cropper reframes your image to a rectangular crop with aspect-ratio and social media presets on a client-side canvas. Custom Cutter focuses on keep-or-remove region cutouts with transparent PNG export — draw a selection, isolate or remove the area, and export. Use Cropper for ratio-locked reframing; use Custom Cutter for cutout workflows.
